Colorado Parks & Wildlife Commissioner Murphy Robinson joins Through the Gates for the most transparent, engaging, and wide-ranging interview he’s ever given. Murphy opens up about his lifelong love of fishing and hunting, how he unexpectedly ended up on the CPW Commission, what it’s like navigating political pressure, and his mission to keep wildlife management science-based, ethical, and accessible for future generations.
Murphy dives deep into the realities of modern wildlife policy — the growing urban-rural divide, how politics threatens responsible conservation, the impact of ballot-box biology, and why both hunters and non-hunters need to understand the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. He also shares personal stories about raising his kids in the outdoors, learning to hunt on his own, building trust with advocates and critics, and hosting “Hunter & Angler Happy Hours” across Colorado.
If you care about Colorado wildlife, CPW decisions, hunting access, conservation funding, or keeping politics out of wildlife management, this is an episode you cannot miss.
